To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, ARoH EUDr, a citizen of theUnited States, andresiding in the city of Riverside, county of Riverside, and

State of California, have invented a new and useful Improvement in aCombination- Tool, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to combination tools, and the principal object isto provide a convenient tool to handle ice provided with a pick and ashaving device.

It is also an object to provide the handle of an ice pick, formed ofhinged sections, one of which is provided with a cap lifting hook, andthe other portion holds the shaving device together with a foldable corkscrew and can opener.

In the drawings accompanying this specificationFigure l is a sideelevation of the pick with the section of the handles closed. Fig. 2 isa longitudinal section through the shaver portion of the handle showingthe can opener opened up. Fig. 8 is another sectional view of the handleshowing the cork screw located in its recess. Fig. 4 is a view showingthe section provided with a hook applied to a bottle cap. Fig. 5 is aface view of the body section of the handle, the hinged section beingremoved. Fig. 6 is a section on the line 66 of Fig. 1 viewed in thedirection indicated by the arrows.

More specifically in the drawings, 7 designates a cylindrical ice pickhaving the sharpened point 8, the blunt end of the pick being secured inthe body section 9 of the handle and secured therein by any suitablemeans not shown. This body section of the handle together with thehinged sec-.

tion 10, when folded together and locked in position by suitable catch,not shown, form the usual and conventional form of handle of generalcylindrical configuration.

provided with a recess 12 opposite the pointof the hook which engageswith a bottle cap by the corner formed by the depression, and wheninserted under the crimped edge of a bottle cap will lift the same anduncork the bottle.

The body portion 9 of the handle is provided. with .a plurality:ofrecesses, the cen tral and larger of which 14 forms a chamber for theinsertion of the scraper 15 securedby means of the screws 16, in whichmay be caught the particles of ice removed by the teeth 17 formed cn theexposed edge of the blade. These teeth preferably extend as shown,beyond the covered inner face of the body portion. This blade ispreferably of the general triangular form, and is overlapped slightly bywalls 18 and 19 of the two other recesses formed in the inner face ofthe body member, which are adapted to,

receive a cork screw 20 and the can opener 21. The cork screw ispreferably pivoted on a pivot pin 22 carried through the wall 19 and theexterior wall of the body portion. The can opener 21 is similarlypivoted, preferably at. the end of the slot nearest to the palmar end ofthe handle, theopener being provided with the puncturing and pivot point23, which is adapted to enter the center of a can, and cutting stud 24,which is adapted to be carried around a circumference struck from theengagement of the point 23 as a center. This pointed tool can also beused to pry off the wire securing means around bottle corks, and forother well known uses. tions of the handle, a hinge 25 is provided.

In the operation of the pick, large portions of the ice are adapted tobe separated by means of punctures into the material made by the pick 7,while irregularities caused by unusual fracture of the ice, or when itis desired to scrape off small portions of shaved ice for beverages, thepick 7 is grasped in the hand, including and holding the section 10 inopen position, so that the sharpened teeth may be projected over thesurface of the ice cake in a direction away from the operator, theangular position of the blade determining the depth of the cut made intothe surface.

What I claim is:

1. In a combined ice-pick and shaver, a handle formed with a recessedopening on one side thereof, an outwardly curved ice shaver rigidlymounted on said handle within the recess with its cutting edge normallyprojecting beyond the outer edges of the recess, and a hinged memberhaving a recessed underside hinged on said handle and adapted to closethe recess in the latter to conceal the ice shaver.

2. In a combined ice pick and shaver, a handle on which the pick ismounted formed with a recess openingat the end of the handle portion andon one side thereof, an

I 5 outwardly curved ice shaver secured in said the ice shaver andcooperate with the handle portion to complete the handle.

In witness that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto subscribed my namethis 15th {lay of March, 1913.
